So the cars a manual? going by you wanting to fill it up by the gearstick?

or auto since you bought transmax z ATF ... which im assuming is a Auto trans fluid....

If its auto, im pretty sure most cars can only be filled via the dipstick, it will have a hot and cold reading, fill it up till the fluid comes up to the cold level, it may take a bit to drain down to the trans. And then run till its at op temp, and run the car through the gears and check the oil is up to the hot level reading.

If its manual, they usually have a filler plug and the drain plug, drain plug at the bottom and filler plug to the side of the gearbox.... always easy on a hoist, but may wanna get one of those handy pumps ive heard so much about, if u cant get that then get a hose and a funnel and do it that way till the level reaches the filler plug and starts to dribble out of it.

then again there could be some fancy weirdo way for a gtr so what i just typed could be totally wrong for a gtr....

Please correct me if im wrong anyone :(

No you don't, you fill it up from the filler plug on the side of the box. If you fill it from the gearstick it will go in the transfer case!!

Hahaha dont want that happening!!!

Cheers for that

do you happen to know how much oil it takes??

and does anyone have 34gtr workshop manual??

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).

      EMU Classic. For what I need it to do I see no reason to upgrade. Link and Haltech would both cost an extra chunk of money for a lot of unutilized features
